Lancaster Area Sewing Network (LASN) will present "Undoing Things" on Monday, July 27, at 7 p.m. at Lancaster Friends Quaker Meeting, 110 Tulane Terrace, Lancaster.

Carrie Rhinier will share techniques for removing many types of stitches without damaging the project. Rhinier will also discuss tools that can be used to safely rip out stitches and how to avoid the stitch-rip-stitch cycle. Attendees will be given the opportunity to try their hand in undoing stitches. They should bring a pair of snips with a fine point, as well as a seam ripper.

Rhinier has been sewing for 51 years. She has a Bachelor of Science in interior design and has accumulated a wealth of sewing experience through various avenues, including operating her own sewing and alterations business for the last 27 years. She is retired from Sight & Sound Theatres, where she was a sample maker. She has volunteered as a sewing instructor for a Lebanon 4-H program for the last nine years.

Guests may register for the program on arrival. There is a fee for nonmembers, payable by cash or check only.

LASN's 2026 theme is "Sewing Revolution," with all monthly meetings touching on an aspect of the topic.

LASN is a group for people who love to sew. Its members range from beginners to intermediate hobbyists to professional dressmakers. The group's main focus is fitting and construction skills related primarily to garment sewing. It meets at 7 p.m. on the fourth Monday of most months, with Zoom meetings held during the winter.
